This hotel definitely feels like a 2-star experience despite some clever marketing claims. The rooms are quite small, and there's limited access to taxi services or a travel desk, which can be inconvenient. However, I did have a fantastic experience during a family celebration, as the staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating. The rooftop bar offers a nice atmosphere, although the dining options could use some improvement.

I had an overall pleasant experience at the hotel, especially enjoying the rooftop bar and the attentive service from some staff members. The rooms were clean but a bit small, and the dining options were good yet not extraordinary. While the hotel is perfectly positioned near the jetty, I felt it was slightly pricey compared to similar accommodations.

The hotel offers a stunning rooftop lounge with breathtaking views and decent food, but the overall experience was diminished by small, poorly maintained rooms and inconsistent service. While the staff was generally helpful, issues with air conditioning and room cleanliness made for a less than ideal stay. The location is good, but the hotel is on the pricier side compared to similar properties in the area.

I had a surprisingly wonderful experience at this hotel during my short stay. The rooms, though small, were very clean and well-equipped, and the service was exceptional, especially from the staff who were always ready to help. The only downside was the slightly unwelcoming atmosphere at the restaurant when we arrived, but we quickly moved on and enjoyed the bar instead. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would recommend it to others.

I had a lovely stay at SeaShell hotel; it's a brand new property in Port Blair with a stunning view from the top floor balcony. The ambience was wonderful, and the staff was quite helpful, especially the manager. However, the rooms were on the smaller side, and unfortunately, they wouldn’t provide a packed breakfast for my early departure, which was a bit frustrating. Overall, it’s a beautiful hotel but with some service quirks to consider.

My stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. On the plus side, it was very clean and well-maintained, and the reception staff were genuinely helpful. However, the dining experience was quite disappointing, particularly the slow room service and the atmosphere at the rooftop bar. I did end up getting sick towards the end of my trip, which overshadowed my experience. The value for money is questionable considering the limited amenities.
